Speculation on the next UA in April

[JohnSnow]

WotC it is still, after over 25 years, not too late to give these guys a non-awful name. You can do it!

^^^This.

Where’s that gif of Jeff Goldblum mumbling Ass-gard when you need one?

So even if it was second hand, now third hand knowledge, I guess that tracks with the previous releases.

I expect at least 20th if not 27th of april.

If they hit the 20th, they will actually be on-point for their "bi-monthly" new schedule. Hopefully that will happen. AFAICT all the previous UAs (barring the first one) were late (from when they were expected), but that's probably why they went for the new schedule. Hopefully it was to make it a schedule that they could keep.

They know with the UA playtesting the speculations about future releases start again.

I see now they are more focused into the updated edition than adding new things.

Maybe we could see some new about the ardlings and the glitchlings. The idea was not bad, but the design of the specie traits need work.

And lose their place at the front of the phone book?

What, and cause a riot amongst people who were playing in the 90's? Not really WotC MO, lol.

They used to be called "birdfolk" until the salesman at the Yellow Pages talked marketing strategy with them.

They're the second customers.

Just wait, next week, he's pitching the krenshar on being the "aaardcats."

That DMG video makes me worry that they're trying to hold us over with some news tidbits because the playtest is late AGAIN.

Hopefully I'm wrong and we'll see it Thursday!

Maybe laying the groundwork for not doing too much UA for the DMG: based on the description, it doesn't really sound like they need to do much of that.

at this point the play test may not even be out by 2024

 

[FitzTheRuke]

Well... any sign of it? Do they usually drop them at 9am Pacific? Should I be waiting for next week? I won't hold my breath, but I figured with the leaks that the thing would be ready to go.
